So the game itself is the hammer.
I love it hegemony 3
But the diplomacy system is a catastrophe since it makes no sense.
If I meet a people then it has equal with me
Also one has no opportunities the other fraction to move to peace except with tribute.
The diplomatic quest are not logical.
For example :
Fraction A wants me to attack Fraction B only so Fraction A Neutal ???
If I refuse I have war with fraction A and Frakrtion B ???
I would wish that you
For example food or wood can deliver to fraction A, which becomes neutral.
Also Alianzen would be logical, which was normal at that time
